Just wondering ran a ad a while back for a job that probaly pays 40- 50 k a year, not one person applied with unemployment exploding thru the roof in kentucky, not one person ever replied, talked to a person pretty high up in the disabilty office the other day, know what he told me? 3 out of 5 people draw a check, for u yankees that means they get paid around 1200 to 1500 a month to sit on there azz while the working man pays there way, generation after generation have drawn this check for years. Whats wrong with this picture? I thought this all sounded grand so i ask where do i apply? There response was and i quote----"Jimmie u screwed up and went to work"...well kma.Ya know i am proud to be from kentucky but are all states as blessed as us? Just like our lottery says "Somebodys gotta win" Just never seems to be the working folk.

Same world I live in, Jimbo.

Our end of Virginia is no better. I would love to fire my saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad excuse for an office manager but I can not even find someone to work 40 hours a week with all benifits... sitting in an office chair and answering the phone and talking. So I keep her around because I have nothing else. 95% of the credit I pull anymore seems to be disable income. sad world when those who need it cant get it and all others draw all day!

Years ago I watched a documentary on construction in Puerto Rico. The interviewer was asking the hotel building contractor questions about his native workers. The contracter interrupted and said, these workers are not from Puerto Rico, they are from the Virgin Islands. The reporter was shocked and said, there is a high unemployment rate here in Puerto Rico, I can't believe you won't hire locals. The contractor said, lady they have welfare here in Puerto Rico, we can't find local workers who will do this job.

Wonder what happens when all of Mexico gets welfare?

i use to run a contract co i supplied labor for underground mines as much unemployment as they are here i had a hard time finding men usually their first reply was will you pay me cash or put my check in my wifes name most were on disable social security

They should be made to join the Armed services and serve to pay back all they have basically stolen from this country .Front of the line private dirt bag

Don't feel like the Lone Ranger Jimmy. Yankees are really good at it too. Someday this welfare / "disability" bill is gonna come due and wont be anyone left to pay it. Just heard another story last week of a local leech that is now drawing 2 checks.

i know guys that draws ss and workman comp bet they didnt work 4 or 5 months in the mines if that long how do they do that? has to be some kind of secret or maybe they just know the right people

Everybody's looking to make the easy dollar. Dont get me wrong their are alot of elderly and disabled that need it , but the majority are just lazy. That's why the DOPE is so bad in the Eastern part of the State. They look at it with little risk, if they get caught they get a slap on the wrist with 3 hots and a cot in the County that the taxpayers foot the bill for. JMO

I heard them say the unemployment rate was 12% in California last night. Once people get the easy road it is hard to get them off of it. It is usually the ones that are really trying to find a job that suffer the worse.

I feel the same way. i have been unemployed for almost a year now and can't find a job anywhere within 80 miles of the house. put in well over 100 resumes and never get a call back. plenty of time to run dogs but the pay isn't worth a .

Can you say socialism? Socialism is a good thing, until you run out of other people's money. All I really get to look forward to is paying more in taxes so I can help others get the insurance that they don't want to work for. It is my belief that the current establishment won't be happy until they have created a huge separation of the classes by basically eliminating the middle class. As long as people are content with their share of gov't cheese (oppression) and the harder the gov't makes it for the self starters to achieve the larger the separation. Gov't handouts brought on by gov't induced record unemployment = more socialism. Good for the socialist agenda bad for America. No one wants to work for it Jimmie when the socialist are willing to oppress the ignorant cheese lover. Beware of the socialist dressed in liberal garb.

well,i found out west virginia aint much better last week when my buddy was in the motorcycle crash i spoke of in another thread.he was transported to cabbell huntington trama center in huntington wva,when he got there the nurse said that we should call the local hotels and plan on being there a couple days concidering his condition,well,after they found out he was a hard working small bussiness owner with no medical insurance and not a fat ass that sits behind the tv and draws a nut check with a nice medical card attatched to his food stamp card,they went and got a student from marshall university and he hacked half of one finger off that they sent him there to try and save,threw it in the trash and he half assed sewed the end together and it looks like some in field pics i seen during the civil war,i would post a pic of his finger but it would make you puke,then they told him his hip,wrist,hand,pelvic and ribs where broken,he had a concusion,spraigned back and neck and that he would be going home.

i blew up,i walked down the hall and there was a young lady there with a broken ankle and a mild concussion from a car wreck and she was getting admitted,i said let me guess,you have insurance right,they said yes,so go figure.....
